Britt of Bookah's Inc

Excelsior! I'm Britt Flashylights. I graduated with top honors in the Collage of Synergetics. My first invention was a transmospheric converter, which I'm very proud of. My very best friend in the whole world is my twin sister Oshna! She isn't half the genius I am, though. I have five younger siblings as well. Shalynn, Lexxie, Becca, Lepps and Cerra. I also have a niece, Pinky Bean. There's also Oshano, a Human ranger I travel with from time to time. He can be such a bookah!

    the funniest thing in the entire pirates of the caribbean series is definitely that one scene in At World’s End where they have parlay but davy jones is part of it, and rather than have him stand in the shallows or something they get a big bucket of water and have in stand on it on shore

    who thought of that idea? who thought “put davy jones in a bucket of water” and had the guts to suggest it aloud? and then who went “hey that sounds like a great idea!”

    at some point someone told davy jones their idea was for him to stand in a bucket of water and he agreed to it

    image

    *stands majestically in a bucket*

    ok but notice the trail of buckets behind him meaning he walked from the ocean through three other buckets of water before he got into the one hes standing in

    It’s even funnier when you consider how he must have figured all this out in the first place.

    Some folks are asking “well, if he can avoid the no-dry-land curse simply by standing in a bucket, doesn’t that ruin his whole motivation?”, but he’s not on dry land here.

    The parley takes place on a sandbar - which, for the unfamiliar, is a temporary “island” of sand deposited by breaking waves, unconnected with the shore, that spends most of its time submerged, being exposed only at low tide.

    What Jones is doing here is rules-lawyering his curse. Can you imagine the trial and error he must have gone through in order to determine that this would actually work?

    “Okay, do islands count as dry land? How about parts of the shore below the high tide mark? Reefs? Shoals? What if I stand in a pool of water on a shoal? Does it have to be seawater, or will any water do? Does it have to be a natural tidepool, or can it be something artificial, like a bucket?”

    What I am saying is that there must have been a process.

    Pretty sure that this implies that the reverse - a bucket of sand, floating on the water (big bucket with just a bit of sand), would qualify as dry land. That’s absurd, so I’m pretty sure that his lawyer pulled a fast one over the curse governor.

    It may be absurd, but the text of the film bears it out. Davy Jones can sense the presence of his heart while it’s at sea, but not while it’s on land (indeed, that’s why he buried it on land in the first place: to break his connection with it) - yet placing the heart in a simple jar of dirt conceals it from Jones’ awareness just as surely as burial on land does, even if the jar is on a boat at the time. Suitably prepared vessels filled with dirt absolutely count as dry land for the purpose of Jones’ curse.

    Then the reverse should also be true. If he buried it in a jar of water, no matter how far inland it is, he would be able to sense it. So by this logic, any container of seawater counts as not dry land, ergo, the bucket is a perfectly viable loophole.

    Not necessarily. It’s traditionally a lot easier to accidentally get whammied by a curse than it is to weasel around it - I figure that’s why he’s using multiple layers of indirection here. He’s forbidden to set foot on dry land, but it’s technically not dry land (it’s a sandbar, a non-permanent landform exposed only at low tide) and he technically didn’t set foot on it (he’s standing in a bucket of water). It’s entirely possible that either one of those things alone wouldn’t make the grade.

    okay but this all raises one further, very important question: if it’s specifically “dry land” he’s forbidden from, what about wetlands.

    can Davy Jones fight you in salt marshes? can he throw down in a peat bog?Swamp Battle?

    This is the quality content I come to Tumblr for.

    could he step on land if his shoes are wet?

    I fucking love this entire post.

    not voting for hillary clinton is a vote for donald trump

    But also THERE ARE MORE THAN TWO CHOICES IN THIS ELECTION pls people, I know it seems unlikely, but if everyone who didn’t want either candidate wrote in a name, someone else would stand a chance [and we could live with ourselves, not having voted for one or the other]

    no they wouldn’t, literally do not do this

    please educate yourself about nader and the 2000 presidential election before encouraging this literally terrible idea

    People on both sides say “Not voting for my candidate is a vote for the other guy” No, it’s just not a vote for your fucking candidate. Vote for who you actually believe in, otherwise you might as well not vote.
    If Hillary actually gave a damn she would try harder than just say “Vote for me cause I’m not Trump” No bitch, how about you show me something I can believe in.
    God damn, no wonder so many people don’t fucking vote.

    *sigh*

    Let me explain why they say a vote for a 3rd candidate or not voting for Hillary is voting for Trump:

    The United States does not have a direct democratic voting system. We have an indirect system called the electoral college.The electoral college is  a compromise between election of the President by a vote in Congress and election of the President by a popular vote of qualified citizens.

    To win the Presidency you do not need a popular majority; you need the majority of votes of the electoral college. 

    The way the college works is that the two parties select the delegates that will serve as electors, and the electors pledge to vote for the candidates, depending on their party affiliation, of either the democratic or republican party. So, when people go vote, they are actually going to vote for electors that have pledged to vote for a specific party/candidate. 

    Each state is allocated a different number of electoral seats, and so not every state is truly worth the same given that every candidate is racing to secure 270 seats (minimum required to win the election). 

    What’s important to note is that the electoral college is a winner take all vote in 48 of the 50 states, meaning that the candidate with the higher number of votes in a given state will get ALL of the seats. This is one of the reasons why third party candidates are a wasted vote. 

    Based on our country’s history, most States around the country have already been defined as either red or blue, because the majority of the people that go and vote in said states tend to stick to either one or the other no matter who is on the ballot. It becomes a bit of loyalism to a party or, more accurately, just a strong distaste towards the ideals of the other party. However, there are a few swing states that really define the elections, for each election cycle they tend to change depending on who is on the ballot. 

    Now, third party candidates, which is often used as a protest vote, have never worked because a) they are not written into every state ballot, meaning that there are states that don’t offer these candidates given that they did not qualify b) have rarely gotten enough votes to even be up for electoral seats c) ALWAYS end up hurting one of the two candidates, for, in close runs, they can make one of the other two candidates lose a SWING STATE.

    This is what happened with Ralph Nader in 2000. The votes that he received hurt Gore in certain states, particularly florida, which led to Bush winning as he had the majority of electoral seats even though he did not have the majority in popular vote. 

    Now, in the latest poll, it shows that the race between Hillary and trump is very close, and, when third party candidates are involved, it actually HURTS Hillary’s chances. 

    Now, if it hurts her enough, Trump can obtain the much needed swing states. If he gets over 270 seats (and thus more than hillary) he WILL win the goddamn election. 

    This is not a year to vote for a third party candidate. This is not a man you want in the oval office of the most powerful country in the world. 

    There is nothing NOTHING you can pull out that will make Trump the lesser of two evils. 

    We live in a country that has a two party system, so yes, a vote for a 3rd party candidate or a non-vote IS actually a vote for trump.

  • George Lucas changes Jedi marriage rules after cute kid asks nicely

    One 7-year-old boy has succeeded where legions of fans have failed: he has persuaded George Lucas to change his vision for Star Wars.
    Colin, a young Star Wars fan, hopes to become a Jedi Knight when he’s older, but he also wants to get married and start a family—something forbidden by the Jedi Order, according to Attack Of The Clones and Revenge Of The Sith. Probably dissatisfied with his parents’ guidance to “just become a new kind of Jedi” or to “stop watching those prequels and watch the real Star Wars,” Colin went straight to the source with a succinct letter to Lucasfilm:

    Colin received the following response:
